Other Reasons Why This Error Shows Up

Sometimes, Bing Image Creator shows this error even when you have not reached the daily limit. And sometimes, it doesn’t go away at all. The error pops up every single day. 

In these scenarios, there can be underlying reasons for this problem, which include:

  • Internet Connectivity: Poor or unstable internet connection can disrupt communication with Bing Image Creator servers. It may not receive your prompt or generate the image quickly. 
  • Bing Cache: Accumulated cache in your search engine may cause conflicts or outdated data, potentially triggering the submission error.
  • Account Restrictions: If your Microsoft account has any previous restrictions, or you violated Bing Image Creator’s content policy by submitting an inappropriate prompt,  this error can show up. 
  • Server Issues: Temporary server outages, maintenance, or high traffic can impact Bing Image Creator’s functionality.
  • System Glitches: Although this is rare, the platform might be experiencing bugs and system errors. This can stop the daily limit from resetting.

How to Fix Bing Image Creator You Can’t Submit Any More Prompts Error?

It can be really frustrating to see the “You Can’t Submit Any More Prompts” error when all you want to do is generate some cool AI images. But, worry not, here’s what you can do to resolve the issue:

1. Upgrade Your Internet Connection

Bing Image Creator relies on a stable and fast internet connection to process your prompt. So, if your internet is slow (which is one of the most common reasons), the AI tool will definitely lag and show errors. 

Search for Internet Speed Test on Google and perform the test. If your internet’s speed is lower than 25 Mbps, it’s time to upgrade the connection. Switch to plans that offer a minimum of 40Mbps. 

Or if you can’t switch the plan at the moment, reduce the number of devices connected to the internet. This should free up the processing time and allow better performance.

2. Clear Your Bing Cache

Microsoft Bing, like any other search engine, stores cache. This temporary data enables it to remember your most recently visited sites, device characteristics, IP address, and other relevant data. 

However, none of this includes your downloaded images and important files. You can clear the Bing cache without worrying about data loss. Here’s how to do it directly from Bing Image Creator:

  • Click on the hamburger Menu icon.

  • Go to Search History.
    Search History Option
  • Select Clear All.
    Clear All Option

3. Check Your Account Status

Microsoft monitors its user accounts strictly and may place restrictions if suspicious activity is detected. So, check your account status and ensure everything is good.

For Bing Image Creator, it’s also possible that your account is temporarily banned because you violated content policy and tried to generate an inappropriate image.  You will have to wait to regain access (which usually takes a couple of days). However, if your ban is permanent, make a new account. 

4. Try Again Later 

It’s been only a year since Bing Image Creator was officially released to the public. So, this realistic and highly accurate AI image generator is still very popular, despite its strict content policy. You should expect the servers to be overloaded with high traffic – especially during the evening when most people are free.

At times, Microsoft might intentionally block public access to Bing Image Creator for maintenance. In any case, the server down issue can’t be fixed by yourself. 

Check Bing Image Creator’s official pages for announcements and wait till the server is up again. 

5. Reach Out to Customer Support 

Lastly, if you feel like there is a system glitch or some other issue with your Microsoft account, it’s best to contact customer support. You can fill out this form to report the problem.

Or, use the following methods:

Bing is also very active on social media platforms like Instagram and Twitter. You can contact them there with your particular query.
